Patriotic Citizens of Palm Coast, FL wake up to discover a bare flag pole on the 20th Anniversary of 9/11. There was NO flag on the busiest intersection in the city! Many excuses were given; such as weather, flag was stolen, trees were in the way of the flag, trees not trimmed, trees damaged flag, pole broken, etc. Patriot Citizens united together to flag and sign wave to raise awareness of this issue and let the city of Palm Coast know that this would not be tolerated! In the end, something special and very emotional happened! A happy ending! The Palm Coast Fire Chief, Gerard (Jerry) Forte, instructed his Fire Captain and Battalion to get from his house a flag that once draped over the casket of his fallen father, Lewis Forte. Lewis Forte was a true hero. Lewis Forte served as a Corporal in the United States Army during the Korean War! The Palm Coast fire department heard about the citizens rally for their flag and they delivered and raised, on the bare pole, this special flag. What an amazing ending to a bad situation. It proves that when communities unite, we can accomplish wonderful things! Thanks so much to all of the citizens that came out to drive awareness, the Palm Coast Fire Department, and City Councilmen, Danko and Barbosa, that tried to get the City to respond. A HUGE thank you to Chief Forte for giving his special flag!! God Bless all! The following day, the City swapped out the Chief's flag for a City American flag. It was just so honorable for the Chief to offer this special flag and glad to see the City has now given the Chief back his father's flag.
